14 Days of Valentines

We did 14 Days of Valentines this year. It was a hit. Every morning there was a surprise in their mailbox. Most nights before bedtime, Kate would say, "I wonder what is going to be in my mailbox tomorrow!" Most days it was just a heart shaped note, verse, or sticker. Day 13 was their actual Valentine from Mommy and Daddy. (We did it on Monday because school days (Tuesday) are a little chaotic getting out the door on time.) On Kate's heart it said "your valentine is in daddy's office chair."
Kate's valentine was a Cinderella Doll...
Bryn's valentine said "look for your valentine in your kitchen."
I wish I had Bryn's response on video...she did a little dance when she found her Elmo doll.
Our sweet valentines...
On Valentine's Day, I made the girls red oatmeal with chocolate chips. Brynlee was in immediately...
Kate on the otherhand was not sure about the red. She asked me to make her oatmeal brown and refused to eat it. She finally, after much convincing and telling her about all the chocolate chips that were in there, ate it.
Bryn's last Valentine...
Kate's last valentine...
Daddy left one last surprise for the girls on the way to school. BALLOONS!
Happy Valentine's Day!
